Professor Lozettes method is as good as he
claims At all events. he has built up fortune
by teaching it, and has been indored by some of
the leading men at Oxford University, England.
Professor Harper, of the Theological School,
has investigated the matter. and says that the
system is logical, philosophical and practical
and has proved of great benefit to him in his
studies, although he has mastered only one sixth
of the course o. study The whole course is com
prised in six pamphlets, and the ordinary man

terested in it Each pupil is required to give
bonds that he will not teach the system.
Professor Harper's amapuenss. Mr.. White.
has invented a system details of which not
yet entirely worked out, but which has been
successfully used. Most wonderful feats can be
performed by adopts in this style of mental
gymnastics, such repeating 400 unconnected
